"There is something systemically unsustainable in western capitalism democracy..."
The mob can vote itself what it wants and refuse to pay for it- or pay outrageous amounts for it.

It's that simple. When writing the American constitution our Founders were very preoccupied with finding the right amount of democracy for the republic as democracies always turn into tyrannies as the people learn they can get more from voting than from working.
